Cedar chest

I received an order for a basic cedar chest, but instead of just a square lid, I decided to give it a live edge look. I think it really makes the chest. The chest is 36” long X 20” tall X 18” deep. Eastern red cedar with 5 coats of gloss polyurethane, that polly really makes it shine.

Thanks again everyone for your comments, a few of you asked me some questions on material thickness of this project. The side panels are 3/4” thick and the lid was an 1 1/4” thick. I usually do the lid at a 1 1/2” thick and the sides at 1’’, but I decided to do it a little different since I had a bunch of already milled up material I wanted to use up. I do like the side at 3/4” and will continue to do so, but the lid I like better at 1 1/2” because it makes the live edge look better the thicker it is.
